I would like to purchase the Photo package where you get the CD of pictures only? Because of the size of my family we have several staterooms. I want to make sure that I am able to get pictures of all my children and grandchildren on my CD. Help”

Ahoy Mary –

Welcome Back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! Wow, you have been very busy with your cruise planning! We hope that you are having a fun time planning your wonderful Disney Cruise with all of your extended family. We are repeat customers in my pirate crew for the photo CD because it captures all of the magic of our vacation. After the cruise, I use my photos from the CD to make our annual family Christmas cards, to post and share on Facebook, and create awesome memory books to cherish for years to come. We often have had several cabins of family members traveling with us, and we had no difficulty with linking our staterooms together for pictures.

At the beginning of your cruise, you will need your Key to the World to take pictures so that they can be assigned to your room. Make sure that your extended family members are in these pictures with you early on so that later pictures will link to you as well. Towards the end of the cruise, special facial recognition software will link members of your party to you, and your family members magically show up in your photo queue which is accessed by kiosks in Shutters. As the owner of the CD, you just need to make sure that your Key to the World is given to the Photopass Photographer so that the pictures show up in your queue. You should also stop by Shutters at the end of each day to make sure the pictures are going to the right place. You may run out of time if you wait until the last day of the cruise to check your pictures. I suggest you pre-purchase the photo CD from online Photography because right now there is a sale of 15% off, and the prices onboard will be higher if you wait to purchase. Mary, rest assured that you will get fabulous pictures of your pirate crew and will have memories to cherish after your amazing cruise!
